    Being the owner of an older vehicle, I've run into a few problems that newer car/truck owners would not encounter. Both drive and passenger sun visors are sagging. anyone know of a place that sells replacements?

    Thanks!

    Tighten the philips screw on the visor arm to allow them to stay in place.

    So... I feel kinda dumb. 01 dosen't have a screw there I'm guessing the screw was added and I missed the reference/joke . But thanks for the pic I'll be adding one there shortly.

    Haha, I wish I was that clever to play a joke on you like that! The 98-00 Tacoma came like this. I'm sure they put in a different visor starting in 2001. Installing a screw there might still work, and if it doesn't then you don't lose anything because you were going to replace them anyway.

    Yeah the corner was starting to peel off so I just pulled the whole sticker away. I'm not sure what kind of adhesive they used, but it was really stuck on there (except for the corner!)

    I couldn't live without being able too use my sunvisor. It just annoyingly hangs out about 1/2 way down. I'm almost ready to resort to velcro. I saw someone use a hose clamp in a similar location to the screw to help put tension and keep it in place.
